Preparedness

As many of you know, preparedness is a passion of mine.  I try hard not to bore you with stuff, but I find I have posted a few things on here.  :)  Most are strictly opinion mixed in with a few links...hope you can find something that is useful to you.

There are lots of recipes on my recipe page that have been adapted to use food storage, or you can adapt them to use only food storage, so I am not re-posting them here.  (if you want some more recipes and ideas, my friend and I did a "food storage experiment" last year and blogged about it HERE.)
